Help with listing branches in OPAC brief display?
I might be off base here but check the setting for ***SearchMyLibraryFirst<http://koha1-staff.geauga.kohalibrary.com/cgi-bin/koha/admin/systempreferences.pl?op=add_form&searchfield=SearchMyLibraryFirst>in the system preferences- under the OPAC tab. *Ours is set to OFF and we display the holds at all the libraries. If you log in as a patron from a different branch does the material listed change to the their library?

Hello
We are setting up a multi-branch Koha system, and we would like all the branches that have copies of a book to appear on the brief title display in the OPAC.
We have seen this on the Nexpress system and Athens County as follows: Strictly forbidden / <http://acpl.kohalibrary.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=14053>by Bradley, Shelley.<http://acpl.kohalibrary.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=au:Bradley%2C%20Shelley.> Publication: New York : Zebra Books, 2002 . 380 p. ; 18 cm. Date:2002 Availability: *Copies available:* Athens [AF Bradley<http://acpl.kohalibrary.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=callnum:AF%20Bradley>] (1), Nelsonville [AF Bradley<http://acpl.kohalibrary.com/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=callnum:AF%20Bradley>] (1),
However, on our system we only see the first (alphabetical) branch name - even though for this book there are 4 copies for 4 different branches: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince <http://192.168.1.194/cgi-bin/koha/opac-detail.pl?biblionumber=13766> by Rowling, J. K.<http://192.168.1.194/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=au:Rowling%2C%20J.%20K.> Publication: Vancouver Raincoast Books 2005 . 607p. Date:2005 Availability: *Copies available:* West Grey Durham Branch [JF Rowli<http://192.168.1.194/cgi-bin/koha/opac-search.pl?q=callnum:JF%20Rowli>] (1),
Is this a new feature we might not have in 3.00.00.107, or have I missed a setting somewhere? Can anyone suggest where I should look?
Many thanks Agnes

NExpress is currently running 3.01.00.033. I believe this functionality/display is fairly new, you may not have it in your install (yet). I do know that we have XSLTResultsDisplay turned on, not sure if that makes any difference.

Hello Susan
SearchMyLibraryFirst is off, and I had tried it both off and on to see which would behave best for us. It makes no difference to how many branches display in the brief record (search results list). It just removes from the list any that do not have a copy at the borrower's home branch. If you are not logged in, one of the branches is displayed, if you are logged in, your home branch is the one displayed.
Thank you anyway! Agnes

Also, weren't you just asking about single branch mode? Make sure that isn't interfering with your results. -- Joe Atzberger LibLime - Open Source Library Solutions 2009/6/12 Liz Rea <lrea@nekls.org>
